1. New Realm

Arsenio's POV~

Kingdom of Lympia, 1200 BC

This day hadn't started yet, but I loathed it already. My father, the king of Lympia, wanted me to settle down with one woman. The problem was, I adore the female population. How could I disregard them just for one female?

I'm Arsenio Tadeas Dimitri Dwight, the god of affection and attraction. The future king of Lympia. No one could resist me, and my charms. I was the only immortal among my people.

Many people worshipped me as a demigod because I was a blessing from the god of love, Eros himself.

My parents, king Dwight and queen Dahlia were so much in love with each other when they were young. But unfortunately, my father couldn't produce a child for the kingdom and my mother refused to take another man into her life because they both were so much in love with each other.

They prayed and made many sacrifices to the god of love and he blessed them with me. I was a spitting image of him. I was the only heir of this kingdom and my parents. I was born with white wings and magical power like the god of love unlike, normal humans. Besides, I, an oracle was capable of performing magic.

I heard rumors that they were capable of entering into different realms but I don't believe them because, if a different realm existed, I would have known it by now.

Of the entire oracle, Apollo's oracle was the most powerful. She lived in the temple, where Apollo's altar was being worshiped and her name was Ebony.

I made my way to my harem to clear my mind. As soon as I entered, I was greeted with the most beautiful, soft, caring, and fragile creation of god. The females kissed my cheeks as I walked by them.

I could hear their giggles, their eyes were sparkling with delight and they looked desperate to get my attention. I winked at a few women on my right which made them swoon over me. I smirked at a few and they looked like they were under a spell.

My mighty white feathers were tucked and disappeared into my back. I scanned the crowd to choose my bedding partner and I settled with Fabiola and Galina.

Fabiola was a white beauty, she was tall, lean, and had soft features with shiny blond hair and mesmerizing grey eyes.

Galina was a black beauty; she was short, curvy, thick, and she had strong features with wild black curly hair and striking brown eyes.

Both were beautiful in their inimitable way.

I went near them and took both their hands and kissed the back of their palm with a lazy smirk which made them giggle, their eyes shone with mischief.

"Your highness." they both bowed courteously and we made our way to the spacious bedroom where I spent my time whenever I visit the harem.

I sat on the edge of my luxurious bed while Fabiola hastily fiddled with the buttons of my loosely fitted white shirt, sitting on my lap. We both discarded my shirt and she kissed between my eyebrows, my cheeks, and my nose. Her soft luscious lips left a trail of fire on my skin.

I groaned in pleasure, "Your highness, I apologize for the inconvenience but the king and queen is here,"

"Fuck!" I cursed under my breath and pulled myself up from my previous position. I hadn't even started for god's sake.

"Ask them to come in," I ordered the messenger and dismissed my companions. I saw the disappointment in their eyes but that's not imperative right now. I didn't bother to put on my shirt and I was left with my pants on.

"Of course, your highness," the messenger bowed and made her way out of the room. A few seconds later my father and mother entered with a crazy-looking lady.

"Father," I addressed him with a nod and engulfed my mother's petite figure. She smiled at me but she looked a little sad and my father gave me a disapproving look, very much aware of my task before their arrival and the bulge in my pant was not helping me either.

"I have had enough of your playboy reputation and I want you to find a bride," he stated sternly.

"Father…" I was cut off by him.

"It's your highness to you, Arsenio," he seethed with anger, "This is Ebony, Apollo's Oracle, she is here to sent you to a different realm and I want you to find a bride and return home with her,"

What the fuck!

I couldn't believe what he was saying, "But what about the princesses in other kingdoms here?" I asked him with frustration.

"Other princesses may throw themselves at you but their father won't be happy about your womanizing reputation. You can't use your powers in the realm, you're being sent to," he stated firmly.

"I refuse to cope with this idea," I grumbled with frustration.

"You don't have a choice, son." he turned to the oracle, she nodded her head at him and poked me with a needle which felt like restraining something deep within me.

"What the hell!" I yelled at her. She chanted few words and a swirling black hole appeared in front of me. I couldn't believe what was happening, so the rumors were true after all.

"Good luck, son." My mom hugged me and without warning, she pushed me into that swirling black hole.

Adeline Sandros' POV

Washington DC, America, 2021 modern world (Exclude the corona outbreak)

I was so damn exhausted with today's work. I was working as a journalist in World Premier, a news station. Today, I was assigned a new project which was related to Rehor Jedrick, the notorious billionaire.

Many suspects that he was involved with illegal activities such as human trafficking, drug supply and some even say that he was involved in the mafia. He looked like a demon disguised in human form. He was an intimidating guy with this dark and mysterious aura.

Heck! I didn't even meet him in person but one look at his pictures would scream danger. I didn't know how I was going to collect information about him but I don't have a choice in this matter.

But I had to accept that the guy was hot as hell. He had luscious brown hair, and pale blue eyes with a strong, masculine jawline. I saw his neck tattoo peeking through his shirt collar. The guy was too dangerous to dream about him romantically.

I heaved a long sigh and entered my one-bedroom apartment which was located on the third floor. I locked the door behind me and dropped my car keys on the kitchen counter.

I peeled off my clothes and went to take a shower. I looked at my reflection in my bathroom mirror, my electric blue eyes looked weary, and my ink-black hair was sticking on my neck.

What got my attention was the one little beast on my left cheek.

"NO!" I shrieked at the pimple.

"Why Lord? Why me?" I sulked at my reflection. It looked so pink but thank god it was small. A little concealer would help, right?. I tried to convince myself.

I stepped into my shower and the hot water made my tense muscles relax. I closed my eyes and devoured my shower but suddenly some heavyweight pushed me down and landed on top of me. Before my head hit the bathroom floor they engulfed their hand behind my head.

My eyes were wide as soccer. It was a grown man in his late twenties. He had a rare shade of emerald green eyes and shiny blond hair. His face was sculpted to perfection.

He had the chiseled jaw, pointed nose, and body of a Greek god. He was shirtless and his hard sculpted chest and abs were pressed against my soft feminine body. He gave me a cocky smirk and realization hit me hard like a brick, I was stark naked and a burglar was on top of me.

"Aaarghhhh!" I yelled at the top of my lungs and he muffled my screams with his hands.

As soon as my mother pushed me into the swirling black hole, I landed on a soft body, it was a beautiful maiden. It looked like she was taking a bath before I fell on her. She yelped at my sudden intrusion. Before her head met the floor I wrapped my hands protectively at the back of her head so her head landed on my palm.

Her wide ocean blue orbs stared at me in a trance. She was bare and drenched in water. Her black hair cascade down like a waterfall but it was not too long, like the woman back in my kingdom.
